Lamson in Google App Engine? - google-app-engine

Do anybody has experience hosting an email application in Lamson in Google App Engine?
Is it possible? Is it easy? Works well? Thanks

Thanks Jörg, but I found there is no need to install a email framework in Google Apps Engine as there is a Python mail API already built in
Thank you anyway!

I have no experience in using Lamson on GAE. However, one important difference between GAE and traditional LAMP hosting is the storage backend and since Lamson already has support for a dozen different storage backends, the interfaces should be well-defined and narrow, so that adding a GAE backend should be rather trivial. (More precisely, Lamson simply doesn't care about the storage backend.)

php with google app engine or amazon-ec2

What is better to code with php in google app engine or in amazon-ec2.
I think it is better in amazon-ec2 because they support datastore with php and google app engine doesn't, what do you think ?
While its not possible to access the appengine datastore, google has a new preview service for "cloud datastore", google "cloud datastore from php" and you will see how to use it.
You really cant compare AWS with appengine as one requires managing servers and scalability manually and their noSQL solution (dynamoDB) is a joke compared to google's datastore, for example in dynamoDB you must provision your writes beforehand and even if you are all day changing provisioning, it takes sometimes hours to propagate the new setting.
I had never use Google App Engine, but several times AWS systems, and sure, as AWS EC2 could be used as Linux Server Instance, I recommend you that provider. And coz' it seems that you use PHP, they have strong API for this langage. Have fun with AWS.

Nope you cannot use it on your own hosting without loosing a lot of features, and not really using the NDB (except if you connect to the datastore via dev)
Check here for alternatives.
I recommend AppScale

Appengine without google apps?

I was using GAE with Gapps on my domain, however it seems that ghs.google.com is unavailable in China.
How can I use GAE on my domain without Gapps?
Edit: A solution I'm considering is using something like a proxy. This way the firewall doesnt see google. By the way, my site is not banned because of its content, it can be acessed normally using appspot. The problem comes from google apps redirections.
Any ideas how I can setup something like this?
According to this answer you cannot.
Petition your government for redress of grievance? Yes, I know that's not such a hot idea in 中華人民共和國.
Google is quote interested in access to their services generally, but isn't (yet) in a position to tell governments what to do directly.
AppScale is an open-source implementation of the Google App Engine cloud computing interface. It is being developed by researchers in the UC Santa Barbara RACELab.
AppScale enables execution of Google App Engine (GAE) applications on virtualized cluster systems. In particular, AppScale enables users to execute GAE applications using their own clusters with greater scalability and reliability than the GAE SDK provides.
Moreover, AppScale executes automatically and transparently over cloud infrastructures such as the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Eucalyptus, the open-source implementation of the AWS interfaces.

If I create a succesful dot com company utilizing google app engine/datastore will google own it?

Or is it easier to host my own website and database.
The main reason I would use google app engine is the "free" hosting and scalability;
Has anyone got experience using app engine, was it a good experience ?
The answer is no, Google does not own either your code or your data. Both of them are completely yours. Google only provides hosting for it - they have no more claim on your data and IP than Amazon does if you go with EC2. Take a look at section 6.3 of the terms.
I'm running mapfaire.com on the App Engine and I'm having a very good experience. I intend to continue using it for all my applications.

Does Google uses AppEngine for its own products?

I've been wondering: does Google uses AppEngine for its own products?
Yes.
Google's app engine is a consumer-facing front-end for the same server resources that google uses internally.
None of the major world-facing google products DIRECTLY use app engine through the API, but many internal tools built by googlers for googlers do use it, including all the limitations that are placed on the public.
​Run corporate applications on Google App Engine? Yes [they] do.
